All this was tally proved in a publication by Dr. T a ytor,- late of Bolton, .and now of lAivertiool.

Inssend of being- surpriSed that the minds pit poor people shoold be in •stme of agitation: front the conduct of these spies, it was only sur i)risiog that much snore mischief did not-ensue ; and when the filets came before the House, no -doubt Gentlemen would be as mach surprised at it-ai he wa's himself. They had only been taught, wheni)lll•stareing,• to look tip for relief to Par liamentary Reform ; and thooah it 'was known that ihere- were' between 800 rind 900,000 men in this'alartning state in Lancashire and its'neigh bOorhood, so tar from any serious project being . disetyeered, no!hing of any consequence was found Mo. Now,' Supposing, Instead of sending spies and informers to delude and deceive these poor iiple, 'they had sent' persons to-reason with and -console them, how-different might have been the result?'•Bot as no mischeif did arise, it„was a strong presumption that Government was-in the wrong. Mr. Wt tap E thrintwit Would have been better if all discussion had been ptistpuned till the goes tion had 'patsed 'of referring the papers to the Committee 5 -hot as 'so ttttich . had been said,.he owed it' to-the 'House and himself to declare, that. his opinion of the proptiety of the Suspensirin of the Habeas COrpits — Act last year remained mi. charigedi that its necessity bed been proved by'' the eireunistances' that had, transpired at the rent trials, and : that- it . wits his firm conviction that the country had be,en r,escued. by it from the greatest dangers.

Yet, although it may not have.been brought bottle to iOdividends,. the fact itself was quite elear. But tiros it was said, why were the trials so cOodo.eted aa not to show the;full extent • of the conspiracy, ,by . the examination of the in formers ? . He would . answer, that this was not .the . aluty of the Crowe' Officers; their duty was to bring; home treason, at:cording to the proofs they had of its existence. Indeed he ,saw, ample reason why those persons should not have been brought forward.
